President of the Russian Football Federation Alexander Dyukov commented on reports that the Argentina national team is demanding eight million euros to participate in a friendly match with the Russian national team. This was reported by Euro-football.ru.
He emphasized that such information is unfounded. Previously, there were reports in the media that the Russian and Argentina national teams might hold a friendly match at the "Luzhniki" stadium in the fall.
The Russian national team, led by Valery Karpin, has only been allowed to participate in friendly matches due to an international ban. In their last match, the Russian national team achieved a significant victory over Belarus with a score of 4:1.
For this reason, the team is currently focusing on friendly matches instead of official competitions. This situation is also being closely monitored by football fans and experts.
